Yes, this would also be necessary and advisable that councilors gave me 
this information so that telephone bridges can be set up with the 
correct number of ports and that those physically present know who they 
can expect via remote participation

Please let me have this information as soon as possible within 24 hours 
would be great!
Thanks so much
